We study the percolative properties of bi-dimensional systems generated by a random sequential adsorption of line-segments on a square lattice. As the segment length grows, the percolation threshold decreases, goes through a minimum and…
If a point particle moves chaotically through a periodic array of scatterers the associated transport coefficients are typically irregular functions under variation of control parameters. For a piecewise linear two-parameter map we analyze…
Singular vectors are those for which the quality of rational approximations provided by Dirichlet's Theorem can be improved by arbitrarily small multiplicative constants. We provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of singular…
Physical fractals invariably have upper and lower limits for their fractal structure. Berry has shown that a particle sharply confined to a box has a wave function that is fractal both in time and space, with no lower limit. In this…
We revisit a known model in which (conducting) blocks are hierarchically and randomly deposited on a $d$-dimensional substrate according to a hyperbolic size law with the block size decreasing by a factor $\lambda \, > 1$ in each subsequent…
We present a Monte Carlo study of the bond and site directed (oriented) percolation models in $(d+1)$ dimensions on simple-cubic and body-centered-cubic lattices, with $2 \leq d \leq 7$. A dimensionless ratio is defined, and an analysis of…
Developing a robust generalization measure for the performance of machine learning models is an important and challenging task. A lot of recent research in the area focuses on the model decision boundary when predicting generalization. In…
Percolation on a one-dimensional lattice and fractals such as the Sierpinski gasket is typically considered to be trivial because they percolate only at full bond density. By dressing up such lattices with small-world bonds, a novel…
We study the complexity of geometric problems on spaces of low fractal dimension. It was recently shown by [Sidiropoulos & Sridhar, SoCG 2017] that several problems admit improved solutions when the input is a pointset in Euclidean space…
We consider two variations on the Mandelbrot fractal percolation model. In the k-fractal percolation model, the d-dimensional unit cube is divided in N^d equal subcubes, k of which are retained while the others are discarded. The procedure…
Fractal geometry deals mainly with irregularity and captures the complexity of a structure or phenomenon. In this article, we focus on the approximation of set-valued functions using modern machinery on the subject of fractal geometry. We…
Percolation theory is usually applied to lattices with a uniform probability p that a site is occupied or that a bond is closed. The more general case, where p is a function of the position x, has received less attention. Previous studies…
We study a fractional diffusion problem in the divergence form in one space dimension. We define a notion of the viscosity solution. We prove existence of viscosity solutions to the fractional diffusion problem with the Dirichlet boundary…
We define a class of random measures, spatially independent martingales, which we view as a natural generalisation of the canonical random discrete set, and which includes as special cases many variants of fractal percolation and Poissonian…
Descriptors that characterize the geometry and topology of the pore space of porous media are intimately linked to their transport properties. We quantify such descriptors, including pore-size functions and the critical pore radius…
In this paper we consider fractal percolation random Cantor sets $E$ on the plane constructed with non-homogeneous probabilities. We focus on the case when the probabilities are large enough to guarantee that the almost sure dimension of…
Context: During the first stages of dust coagulation in protoplanetary disks, the dust aggregates are expected to have a high degree of porosity. Most models of dust growth, however, do not take this into account. The reason for this is the…
The fractal or Hausdorff dimension is a measure of roughness (or smoothness) for time series and spatial data. The graph of a smooth, differentiable surface indexed in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has topological and fractal dimension $d$. If the surface…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…
Computer simulations are used to generate two-dimensional diffusion-limited deposits of dipoles. The structure of these deposits is analyzed by measuring some global quantities: the density of the deposit and the lateral correlation…
